Best Answer

DNA nucleotides are composed of the sugar deoxyribose, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogen bases: adenine(A), thymine(T), guanine(G), cytosine(C).

No, DNA is a nucleic acid. The monomers of DNA are nucleotides - each of which is made up of a sugar, a phosphate and a nitrogenous base.


Nucleotides are the monomers of?

If we put a comma in that sentence after DNA, the answer is yes, nucleotides are indeed the monomers of DNA. As written, the question makes no sense, since "DNA nucleotides" are not polymers and therefore do not have monomers.

what are the monomers  of DNA?

The monomers of DNA are called nucleotides, and the polymer is a polynucleotide.There are four different nucleotides in DNA called A, T, G, and C for the nitrogenous base sidegroup (adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine respectively) attached to the sugar-phosphate backbone (deoxyribose-phosphate) of a nucleotide. These nucleotides can be joined in any order, permitting the "spelling" of an unlimited number of different genetic "words".
